Seeking the mother dragon, the Protectors of the Pass made their way eastward along the coast of South Harbor, following her mournful cries. Arriving in a swamp, the party discovered a draconic woman, playing a lyre and singing a baleful song. As she sang, buildings began to knit together out of the rocks and rubble lying about the swamp. She introduced herself as Naizelasa, and transformed into a green dragon, thankfully taking her egg and returning it to her clutch. But before leaving, she gifted the party with her magical lyre, which Jack Identified as a Lyre of Fabrication.
Rising the next morning, the Protectors made their way to the Royale in the ruins. After engaging in some dart playing, the Protectors met The Band of the Badger, led by the female paladin Metran. After a wager was set, the party dropped into friendly combat with the Badgers, for the entertainment of the gathered crowd. Though the Badgers were confident and seemed formidable, the Protectors of the Pass defeated them very quickly, and without a single member falling. Climbing out of the pit and gathering their winnings, the Protectors basked in their victory among the rabble-rousing and revelry of the Royale.
